The ExCentris complex located on Saint-Laurent Boulevard, in Montreal, will open its doors next Sunday, from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m., so that the population can pay tribute to its founder, Daniel Langlois, and his wife Dominique Marchand who died tragically last month on the Caribbean island of Dominica.
The Daniel Langlois Foundation indicates that a register will be made available to visitors who wish to demonstrate their attachment to Mr. Langlois and Ms. Marchand. The foundation affirms that through their commitment and generosity, they have marked the lives of several communities.
The register will subsequently be offered to families and sent to The Daniel Langlois Foundation.
Furthermore, the ceremony filmed in Dominica on December 7 will be screened in a loop in the Parallel Cinema hall of the ExCentris complex. A webcast will also be available for those unable to come to the ExCentris complex.
Daniel Langlois became known after founding the animation company Softimage in 1986. A few years later, he created the foundation that bears his name and the ExCentris complex.
In recent years, he has been involved in sustainable development projects, notably with the Coulibri Ridge ecological hotel complex on the island of Dominica.
Daniel Langlois and Dominique Marchand were found dead on December 1 in a burned-out vehicle in Dominica. Suspects have been arrested in connection with this case.
